1. An infusion system comprising:
- one or more user interface elements;
a motor operable to deliver fluid to a user, delivery of the fluid influencing a condition of the user;
a sensing arrangement to obtain a sensor value indicative of the condition of the user;
a data storage element to store alert configuration information for the user; and
a control system coupled to the motor, the sensing arrangement, the data storage element, and the one or more user interface elements to;
operate the motor in a closed-loop mode to deliver the fluid to the user based at least in part on a difference between a target value for the condition of the user and the sensor value;
identify an alert condition based at least in part on the alert configuration information for the user while operating the motor in the closed-loop mode; and
in response to identifying the alert condition;
provide a user notification via the one or more user interface elements in accordance with the alert configuration information; and
operate the motor in an alternative control mode;
receive a user response after providing the user notification; and
